Question on my DIY COB build

Thanks in advance for any help. I recently built a light using 5 CLU-048-1212's, with a meanwell 240H-1400B driver. I wired everything in series using the tutorial from this site. I am using the same linear potentiometer as listed on this site. Once completed, I powered it up. It is sure bright, but...
